Abstract
In this study, a novel and convenient electrochemical sensor was fabricated by using dripping well-dispersed graphene oxide nanosheets, electropolymerization of poly glycine (p-Gly) and in situ plating of metallic copper nanoparticle film methods, successively. This sensor was further employed to investigate the electrochemical behavior of hydrazine. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry were used for the characterization of the prepared film. Anodic peak potential of hydrazine oxidation at the surface of modified electrode shifts by about 150 mV toward negative values compared with that on the bare electrode. The kinetic parameters such as the electron transfer coefficient (α) and charge transfer rate constant (k) for the oxidation of hydrazine was determined utilizing cyclic voltammetry (CV). The diffusion coefficient (D) of hydrazine was also estimated using chronoamperometry. The dynamic detection range of this sensor to hydrazine was 5- 60 and 80- 150 µM at the modified electrode surface using an amperometric method. The detection limit and quantitation are 5.33 µM and 17.77 µM, respectively. A new voltammetric method for determination of hydrazine was erected and shows good sensitivity and selectivity, wider linear relationship, very easy surface update and good stability.
